My husband has excess vacation time, so he still took the week off, so we can have some fun together.
Today we went to Pettaquamscutt River which is a tidal inlet that opens to the bay.
This is the view, looking towards the end of the inlet, where it opens into the bay. We plan on landing on the inside beach, since the outer inlet is rough and shallow and a good way to swamp your boat;)
This is where we stopped to enjoy the views of the bay, cool breezes and warm sun.
Looking down towards the main beach, a couple enjoying a stroll.
After we enjoyed the beach for awhile, we went back to the river area and explored the river and its sancturaries.
This nest looks like it has been in the making for years, not only is it home to an Osprey family, but their are smaller birds who have nested in the sides.
The area is teaming with wild birds, this egret seemed to content to watch as we paddled by.
It makes you wonder, who is watching whom.
There were so many birds today, but most were shy and did not want to stick around for a photo session;)
It was a wonderful day, perfect weather, but 3 hours of paddling and too much sun, so I know I will sleep well tonight.

What an awesome paddle. Nothing like paddling and birdwatching! Happy anniversary to you both. We have a lovely river in our area where you see such great birds too. Nothing like that osprey nest though!
